![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() After all, I was all too happy to lop two tracks off the Public Service Broadcasting album, reconfiguring the band's artistic vision for my own listening pleasure - is skipping a track in the middle really any different? Recently, though, I've realised that I might not be the saintly, skip-shunning listener I took myself for. Even when I'm not enjoying a song and I'm keen to proceed to the next one, I very seldom hit the skip button if the artist deemed this song worthy of a place on their LP, who am I to pooh-pooh it? Of course, he's a vinyl man, and track-skipping on a turntable is more trouble than it's worth, but I listen to most of my music on portable devices and I hold more or less the same view. My girlfriend's father - he could write a blog or two about albums, I don't doubt - has often preached that track-skipping is a cardinal sin, and that when listening to an album, one ought to listen to it properly.
